Only allow a specified user to click URL Button

I have a URL button for approval on a form. Above this I have a field where the user is picked. Is there a way to restrict access so that only the user specified can press this button? I have achieved...

If your [Employee Name] field is a User field, then you can do it by making the formula cantain an if that evaluates the current user:

If([Employee Name]=User(), "My button formula for employee agrees goes here", "")

That will show the button for only the user in the employee agrees section, otherwise it will be blank.

Put it before your second section.... with a slight change

If([Employee Name]=User() AND [Employee Agrees Check]=false,
"<a class=\"Vibrant Primary\" href=\"javascript:" & "$.get('" & $url &
    "', function(){" & "location.reload();" & "});" &
    "void(0);\">Employee Agrees</a>",
""
)
